As soon as Wen Zhong left, one of the three legs disappeared, and the conflict between 'Di Xin' and Shang Rong began to deepen.
After sitting in the world for more than seven years, 'Di Xin' is no longer the child who was manipulated by others. With the relationship between his teacher Wen Zhong, Di Xin was able to control a certain amount of military power. The current Wucheng King Huang Feihu is his uncle.
Although Shang Rong's aristocratic group was powerful, it firstly lacked the name of orthodoxy, and secondly, in Chaoge, it had no military power, but 'Di Xin' began to take back power step by step.
As a minister versus a king, the disadvantage was too great. Shang Rong had no choice but to think of other ways to suppress 'Di Xin'.
There will be a meeting today.
Emperor Xin asked the commander:
"If there is a memorial, I will leave the office. If there is nothing to do, I will leave in the morning."
The real important matters were never discussed at the official meeting. Emperor Xin just went through the motions as before, but unexpectedly, someone suddenly came out and said:
"I, Shang Rong, treat the guilty prime minister as he is in charge of the imperial court. If something happens, I dare not fail to report it. Tomorrow is March 15th, the Christmas day of Nuwa Empress. Please come to Nuwa Palace to offer incense and pray for blessings."
Di Xin's eyes narrowed. Shang Rong was an old and cunning person who would not cause trouble for no reason. He immediately knew in his heart that something was wrong and asked in a deep voice:
"What merit does Nuwa have that she travels alone to bring incense?"
Shang Rong still bowed respectfully and replied:
"Nuwa is an ancient goddess with holy virtues. She has the power to create all living beings.
At that time, Gonggong's head touched Buzhou Mountain, the sky tilted to the northwest, and the earth sank to the southeast. Empress Nuwa collected five-color stones and refined them to make up the blue sky. Therefore, she had done great service to the people, and Li Shu set up a memorial ceremony to repay her.
If we sing and worship this God of Fortune today, then the four seasons will be prosperous, the country will last long, the weather will be smooth, and disasters will subside. Your Majesty, the righteous god who protects the people of this blessed country, should go and pay incense. "
Why didn't Emperor Xin know about Nuwa's achievements? It's just that special officials were responsible for such things as offering sacrifices to the righteous gods. Emperors' sacrifices had their own standards, and they would not sacrifice to one god alone.
Now that we go to Nuwa Palace alone to offer sacrifices, what will happen to the other righteous gods, and what will happen to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors?
But what Shang Rong said was fair, and Empress Nuwa did indeed have merits. This made Di Xin unable to refuse, so he could only nod his head and said:
"What Tai Yin said is true, please give me a memorial."
Shang Rong's face lit up with joy, he bowed and said:
"Great King Shengming."
Di Xin waved his hand, asked to get up, and then asked:
"Do you still have memorials at the Qing family?"
After asking three times in a row, but no one came out, Emperor Xin went back to the palace.
Back in the harem, Di Xin hurriedly invited Zhang Liang, a Qi Refiner from Mount Emei, and Xu Yang from the Skeleton Cave of Shiji Mountain.
Not long after, two Taoists were seen arriving one after the other.
"Meet the king."
"You two nobles, please get up." Di Xin personally went down the imperial steps, helped the two of them sit down, then returned to the throne and asked:
"Today, Prime Minister Shang invited Gu to go to Nuwa Temple to offer incense. He wants to use this ancient god to suppress the prestige of Gu King. I wonder if the two Qings have a way to solve this problem."
These two people were naturally Di Xin's confidants when he was King of Longevity. He wanted to promote them at the beginning, but then he was almost bullied by Shang Rong.
Both of them were the best among those recruited by Wang Chong from the later timeline. They also came to Chaoge's layout early. In addition, they had Jiejiao backgrounds and were recommended by Wen Zhong, earning Emperor Xin's trust.
The two looked at each other and secretly said, "Here we come."
"Nuwa is the master of creation of all spirits. Your Majesty can worship your mother as a son, instead of worshiping God as a king. In this way, when all the princes and people in the world know about it, they will only praise you as a sign of filial piety, and your prestige will not be compromised. .”
When Emperor Xin heard this, he clapped his hands and said:
"The two gentlemen are really my right-hand men. I will ask them to accompany me tomorrow."
Even if Di Xin didn't say anything, the two of them still had to watch it in person. After hearing the words, they immediately bowed and said:
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The next day.
When the king came out of the south gate of Chaoge, every household burned incense and set up fires, and every household laid colorful banners and carpets. Three thousand iron cavalry, eight hundred royal guards, escorted by King Wucheng Huang Feihu, accompanied by civil and military officials from all dynasties, and two Qi refiners Zhang Liang and Xu Yang accompanying him.
Really:
Emperor Luanyu came out of Fengcheng, his hairpins reflected in the auspicious colors.
The dragon light sword spits out the color of the wind and clouds, and the clothes and hats of all nations worship the saint.
Arriving at Nuwa Palace, Emperor Xin got off the chariot. Just as he had discussed with Zhang Liang yesterday, he announced that this time he would offer incense to his mother as a son, but when he walked up the jade steps of Nuwa Palace, there was a sinister wind. It rises from the ground, blowing flags and dancing wildly, making people unable to open their eyes.
When the cold wind stopped, Di Xin looked again and saw that the Nuwa Palace seemed to have changed its color.
I saw the gorgeous front of the palace, with colorful gold makeup. The jade hook hangs diagonally, half of the crescent moon hangs in the sky, the treasure tent is whirling, and thousands of pairs of colorful luan are fighting each other. Beside the blue bed, there are dancing cranes and flying luan, and agarwood throne, creating flying dragons and flying phoenixes.
The statue of Nuwa was originally covered by a cloth curtain, but at this time it was blown open by the cold wind, revealing her true face.
Although it was just a clay statue, in the eyes of Emperor Xin at this time, it was beautiful in appearance, with auspicious colors, and the beauty of the country and heaven, as graceful as life. It was true that the fairy of the Ruigong Palace was insignificant when she came to earth, and Chang'e of the Moon Palace lost her beauty in the next life.
Di Xin was so dazed that he completely forgot where he was. He took a few steps forward, picked up the pen and ink prepared by someone, put the pen on the jade pillar, and wrote:
The scenery of Feng Luan Bao's tent is very special, and it is full of intricate decorations made of gold and gold.
The distant mountains are green, and the sleeves are dancing gracefully to reflect the clouds.
The pear blossoms are blooming in the rain, and the peony cage is full of smoke.
But you can act charmingly and take back Changle to serve the king.
Everyone was shocked, Shang Rong rolled and crawled, rushed into Nuwa's palace, bowed his head and said:
"Nuwa is the righteous god of ancient times and the benefactor of court songs. Old minister, please come and burn incense and pray for blessings, so that all people can enjoy their work, the rain will be smooth and the wind will be calm, and the war will calm down. Your Majesty's poems today are blasphemous and have no sincerity. , I have sinned against the Holy Spirit. I hope that the king will wash it away with water. I sincerely feel guilty and there is still room for redemption. I beg you."
Di Xin, however, lost his mind, flicked his long sleeves and said:
"Looking at Nuwa's face alone, she has a peerless beauty. Why should I write a poem to praise her? Is there any other intention? Don't worry too much."
After that, he lost his pen and ink, got on the chariot, and drove back to the palace.
In Nuwa's palace, Shang Rong was trembling. How could he have imagined that just because of a little selfishness, he would cause such a disaster.
However, Zhang Liang and Xu Yang were blown away by that gust of wind, and their souls were blown up to the nine heavens. When they returned to their physical bodies after a lot of effort, it was already too late.
In the Wa Palace, Nuwa's face turned red with anger. Even though she had known about this for a long time, she was still angry!
He sneered immediately, drove directly to the Fire Cloud Cave, met Xuanyuan, one of the three emperors in this world, and said:
"Yin Shou was a ignorant and ignorant king who did not want to cultivate his moral character and protect the world. Instead, he did not fear God and recited poems to slander me. This is very abominable. I want to be like Tang Jie and rule the world, enjoying the country for more than five hundred years. I am exhausted. All. If I don’t get retribution from him, I won’t see my inspiration.”
Chengtang was also a descendant of Xuanyuan. If Nuwa wanted to be angry, she would naturally ask this person. Xuanyuan knew that he was serious and nodded in agreement without saying much.
After getting Xuanyuan's consent, Empress Nuwa immediately threw a red hydrangea in the direction of Chaoge.
